Not sure BU will get there anytime soon especially with how that program is over there now. Its been going downhill on and off the ice.
Yikes. This seems a bit harsh to me. I would have had him sit the weekend and told him the next time he "loses it" it's 3 games, and THEN if he can't control himself give him the heave ho.
Basically, this is asking the kid to leave (and to take his brother with him.)
BU Hockey: Running Out of Players
Now have we confirmed that the hoky ushl player is the suspended player?? Or is someone leaving post-suspension before the lifeboats are full?
The more I think about this, the more this seems like another Parker knee-jerk reaction. Remember how he wanted to fire Zach Cohen, but Gilroy talked him out of it? Russ Bartlett anyone? Jeez, Jack. Marriage, er, I mean player relationships take a little work sometimes. Cutting and running is the easy way out.

There is probably someone else leaving as well.....

How's the band broomball team looking this year? We might need to call a few players up.
Don't agree. This is his third suspension of the year. He's been suspended for the short term twice this year and it still has not affected his behavior on the ice. This is the case of a kid who seemed to not get that his play was directly hurting the team, so he had to be made an example of, in addition to taking his third strike on Monday. If he was allowed back on the ice, this would've happened again, and potentially in an even more damaging situation for the team.
I just realized this is his 3rd suspension this season. I remembered the kick vs. Denver but forgot about the issue he had with an ND fan in the penalty box (allegedly).
At first I was thinking this is pretty harsh but now it seems a little less so.

It's interesting isn't it? The bolded part kind of stuck out.
3 strikes and you're out: Privitera
4 strikes and you're out: Trivino. Worth noting that Parker rightly predicted a 4th problem with Trivino and still let him come back.
Let me ask this, with the Task Force and all sorts of people breathing down his neck, was this necessary by Parker to keep everyone happy? Would he have done this a few years ago? Would he have kicked Sabo off the team last decade for smashing a kid's face in if it happened this season?
I know Parker's Wheel of Injustice gets everyone riled up and I'm actually not trying to flame here but... seriously it should raise an eyebrow.
and certainly not something that's going to show up in a Globe headline....
